Ubisoft, the renowned video game developer behind iconic franchises like Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry, narrowly escaped a potentially devastating data breach.  On December 20th, an unidentified threat actor infiltrated their systems, gaining access for approximately 48 hours before Ubisoft’s eagle-eyed security team detected the anomaly and revoked access. The precise nature of the attack remains shrouded in mystery.  Details regarding the initial access vector, the attacker’s tools and techniques, and the specific vulnerabilities exploited are still under investigation.  However, what is known is that the individual gained access to Ubisoft’s internal network and embarked on a brazen attempt to exfiltrate a staggering 900 gigabytes of data.
